Digital literacy skills are becoming increasingly important as reading online is more complex than traditional print literacy but many students and teachers lack these skills; new definitions of literacy are needed along with redesigning curricula to explicitly teach skills like evaluating online sources, searching, and synthesizing across documents; professional development for teachers and designing learning tasks that motivate students can help improve digital literacy in schools.

- 12. Myth of the Digital Native born after 1984 in an age of digital media Kirschner, P. A., & De Bruyckere, P. (2017) Prensky, M. (2001) Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants • natural aptitude to use networked technologies, • new skills such as the ability to multitask • knowledge and information literacy because of the web culture in which they live. • the digital native does not exist • people can not multitask • not capable of dealing with modern technologies in the way which is often ascribed to them • suffer if education plays to these alleged abilities to learning with multimedia in digitally environments Persistent idea Research shows
- 13. Attitudes • There's nothing on internet • It’s on Internet, so it’s true • First search results are reliable and useful • Synthesis = Copy and Paste • I’m very competent, when using internet

New, Inclusive Definition of Literacy Cho & Afflerbach, 2010 Print Based Reading fluency, vocabulary, comprehension linear texts (Print & Screen texts) Re-definition of Curriculum / Teaching of Literacy
- 17. 2.New Attainment Goals • Searching and Locating • Can create an effective and efficient search strategy using search engines • Acquisition and selection • Can acquire online information needed to answer a question or problem and select from it • Evaluating / Critical Reading • Can evaluate credibility & usability of online information • Can recognize fake news and manipulation online
- 18. 3. Redesign curriculum • Add & Integrate • New attainment goals • New skills and strategies (integrated in old and new learning tasks) • Digital texts • Contextualize: • Relate teaching digital skills & strategies to bigger learning tasks • Compare and contrast: How is online reading different • Online vs Offline texts, • Critical reading Offline vs Online, • Locate in Print vs Online Texts.
- 19. Example 1 Redesign Project Language teacher - history teacher. Assignment: research the world in the 17th century. Give us an impression. Design: The history teacher had choosen all the resources. Redesign: • We took out most resources, • New task: locate useful resources, make a list, and explain why resources are of good quality. • Learning: search strategies, evaluation/ critical reading and learn about good history resources. • >> Learning was meaningful, Students were more motivated.
- 20. 4a.Pedagogy/ Didactics (1) Motivate • Make it meaningful • A Personal Digital Inquiry • Or relate to Learning tasks across the curriculum • Make it fun: Use their creativity (blogs, make a website (with video) as learning outcome) • Make it count, e.g., locate & evaluate resources an explicit part of grading (in all subjects/ domains)
- 21. Research your Ancestors an example Work on Digital Literacy in meaningful context. Related to writing, reading and cross curriculum. • Students researched an ancestor, who was already dead, and, if possible, a bit special. • 4 days research, in which they learned to search, locate and evaluate resources. They used different tools, offline and online. They worked in and outside school. • After 4 days they showcased the results of the research. • Next phase: write about it, communicate it to school and family. Most students really wanted to tell us, especially their family and often wrote fictional stories. • The results were so much better than in my traditional writing course. The students were very motivated. and they learned digital literacy skills embedded in an interesting task. They really impressed me. Example 2: Motivate
- 22. 4b.Pedagogy/ Didactics (2) • Modelling strategies: teacher and students • Co-learning: Let students learn from each other: Collaborate, learn aloud, and discuss • Collaborative classroom: Share Best Strategies in Class, Build Criteria Lists collaboratively • Scaffold and differentiate
- 23. Professional development & Implementing in schools
- 24. Implementing & Professional Development • Redesign your own curriculum. Don’t wait for the textbooks. • Work in Teacher Design Teams • Subject team (Language teachers) or Mixed Team • Think, Design, Try-out, Reflect, Redesign • Collaborate • Digital literacy in all subjects. Talk to the colleagues • Use assignments from all subjects in Language Class • Discuss the role of Language Teacher (across the curriculum)

Notes de l'éditeur
- Hello, good afternoon. Happy to be here with you. I'm Jeroen Clemens. My professional focus is Digital Literacy and Language Teaching, the topic of my presentation My background is Language Teaching. I was Language Teacher, a Teacher trainer and Researcher. Nowadays I work with teachers, give presentations and workshops and write And I’m (board) member of several professional networks..
- Literacy has changed a lot, from Print Literacy to mostly Digital Literacy. From offline to online. From analogue to digital. It's a big challenge for everyone and especially for us, working in the field of Literacy.
- First, the information context
- Learning Tasks are changing. Many learning tasks typically takes place within a problem-solving task online. This happens often at school in all subjects, but also in society
- Research shows we need Additional Skills and Strategies. Kiili and colleagues looked at the core qualities of digital literacy. They came with 6 core factors and related digital literacy skills
- Research shows we need Additional Skills and Strategies. Kiili and colleagues looked at the core qualities of digital literacy. They came with 6 core factors and related digital literacy skills
- The idea of Competent Digital Natives is a Myth. The persistent idea was (or is) But research shows..
- In addition, the reader also needs new knowledge. And readers have misconceptions
- Cho & Afflerbach ‘s research shows that we have three clusters of skills we must include in our new definition of literacy. This is an expansion of the traditional definition. 1. Traditional Print Literacy. Still the core of our curriculum. Important, but not enough 2. Multi-document Literacy. Working with multiple resources online. Compare, contrast, focussed reading and synthesis is needed. 3. Digital Literacy needs to be part of our defintion of Literacy and also of our curriculum.
- For digital literacy you need to formulate additional attainment goals. Goals lead what you do and make it easier to redesign you curriculum. Here a few examples. Focus at the 6 core skills we mentioned earlier.
- Textbooks don’t hel much. So design and redesign yourself. For redesign: Relate to what you have and fill the gaps
- For redesign you can start everywhere. Redesign doesn't have to be very difficult. Start small but think big. An example of redesign.
- Which didactics are appropriate for teaching digital literacy. Here are a few examples, which research has shown to work well. Of course, these also fit into traditional language teaching, but they are even more important in digital literacy. Co-learn is more powerful then using roadmaps Discuss, think, learn from each other
- I was frustrated teaching writing and wanted to teach digital literacy more meaningful. So I designed this project, which was voluntary. I wanted students to wonder, be motivated, feel that learning is meaningful
- Which didactics are appropriate for teaching digital literacy. Here are a few examples, which research has shown to work well. Of course, these also fit into traditional language teaching, but they are even more important in digital literacy. Co-learn is more powerful then using roadmaps Discuss, think, learn from each other
- Changing education is difficult. And certainly the implementation of relatively new subjects such as digital literacy. How do you get started and become more professional? A few suggestions.
- Thank you for your interest. Hope you enjoyed it and learned a bit too. The presentation will be made available. I will add a list of resources later. You can always contact me.
